You and I together forever baby [Chorus] I've been knockin' knockin' Knockin' at the door Open up and let me on in I want to be more than friends Woo woo, woo woo woo Check you, Mr. Slick, who you tryin' to trick See a sign sayin' pick, want to play me for a quick stick With the next chick telling me you working late When my girls already saw you on a date Whoopty-whoop, black, the hell with that, can't get me back Bread's on the menu, pictures of the chick you had Now you want to flex to impress with the Lexus Diamonds and negators, uh, I'll check you later There's more comin' attractions in the movie theater I turn you down with the fader, don't be a player-hater 'cause you know what I'm workin' with son The same damn thing that had you shook, trickin' from day one Feelin' the pimp now, pockets lookin' slim now I'm want mad shit, it's sh-sh-shoopin' like, hmmm, with him now No doubt, yeah, 'cause I love the way he work it out And he showed me things you don't even know about [Chorus: x2] Always and forever, I remember when you sang it to me I feel you sleezin' me, sleepin' with the enemy The lifestyle you was livin' was a mystery Don't say shit to me, 'cause now you history Don't ask where you are, I want to know how far I hear you trickin' on hookers at the bar You're makin' moves on the girl Ain't got a care in the world That's why I made you double up every time I twirled But the sex is not the best, don't expect me to take less So rest, and the next man come and bless The daisy, boy you crazy, don't play me Get over yourself baby, 'cause you don't even faze me I'm known as Salt in the game with aim and no shame And I still have my fame to claim, ain't nothin' changed But the weather, and how to make the cheddar better And I'll never take you back, that's always and forever And those roses on the bed And you grabbed me and said Ooh, you got it, hmmm, you got it Remember I held you real tight And I rocked it all night I said, hmmm, I got it, hmmm, I got it (So) Let me in, (Let) let me in (My baby) Let me in, let me in (Ooh) Let me in, let me in (I'm on my hands and knees, girl) Let me in, somethin' 'bout the way I feel Oh my, how the table's turned, play with fire you get burned What goes around comes around, now your ass is hurt Reminiscin' how the Pepa was a real lover The type of girl that made you uh-uh-uh, over and over You talkin' like you want me back, but never brother You blew it, when I pulled your cover, however No need for me to stress the mess The mess caused in our love nest, nevertheless, yes Moving on, looking good, and I'm well-dressed The blessed achieve high self-esteem, fulfill my dream That's why I always get the cream 'cause I got my child Who makes me smile, no time for the man who keeps it wild (That's right) I'm keepin' you on foul, you exiled, that's how it gotta be So cease 'cause you ain't pleasin' me Salt-N-Pepa brand new, uh, for the nine-seven Sorry asses get to steppin' [Chorus: x2] You and I together forever [Chorus]
